Just finished the game! I enjoyed it overall, but my main gripe is with the amount of menial tasks you have to do in order to advance the story - For instance, cleaning the hall once would be fine, doing it three times just feels like padding. Same with the endless bread deliveries (that at least work as an introduction to the different characters), gathering wood and so on. I also had the same problem with the first game - too many tasks that could've been a cutscene or even a "some time later" caption.
Other than that - the story was good (more engrossing than the first game in my opinion), I really liked the party switching mid-game and the converging plots. The battles were fine although it seems that some enemies are overpowered, and it was a bit annoying when I spent all of my healing potions on a tough battle just to realize it was impossible to win anyway due to the plot.
Still, a very impressive game and one of my favorites on the C64, and I'd love to play the third part someday :) Thank you Sarah!
